For the Greek Suppliers, the VAT must start with 'EL' and must be a valid TIN number

What this rule checks

Greek supplier VAT numbers must use the 'EL' country prefix (not 'GR') followed by a valid 9-digit Greek TIN (AFM), as required by the Greek tax authority.

How to fix it

Set the supplier's VAT number (BT-31) to start with "EL" followed by the 9-digit Greek TIN, e.g., "EL123456789".
